Will January Signings Make Their Impact?

This mid-season transfer window has been exciting! While I expected a couple of minor signings here and there, I would've never imagined the deals which went on this January. Here's what went on in the English Premier League, Serie A, and La Liga.
In England Chelsea were the biggest spenders, snatching FernandoTorres and DavidLuiz for a total sum around 70 million Pounds. Liverpool decided to spend over 55 million Pounds to buy LuisSuarez and AndyCarroll, bolstering their front line well. WestHam got RobbieKeane on loan from Tottenham, and AstonVilla's big signings were JeanMakoun, DarrenBent, and the American MichaelBradley. ManchesterCity bought the EdinDzeko while SulleyMuntari from Inter Milan joined Sunderland along with Sessegnon from PSG.

Pazzini has scored three goals in two appearances for Inter

There were some big names on the move in Italy as well, with InterMilan snapping up Pazzini, Kharja, Ranocchia, and Nagatomo. Juventus got rid of Amauri while bringing in the amiable Matri in, along with the decrepit pairing of Toni and Barzagli. ACMilan also made their mark, getting the Dutch pair of Emanuelson and vanBommel along with AntonioCassano and central defender Legrottaglie.
In Spain, it was Malaga which did most of the buying. After their ownership takeover this past summer, the new Qatari president, AbdullahbenNasserAlThani, has been spending money without many worries. Malaga bought Bayern Munich's veteran defender MartinDemichelis to strengthen the defence, along with Atletico Madrid's promising young keeper, SergioAssenjo, on loan. Malaga also bought Roma's JulioBaptista along with the young Argentine DiegoBuonanotte (some hail him as the next Messi) from River Plate.

Afellay has already scored for Barcelona

Barcelona and Real Madrid made their mark on the January window as well. Barcelona bought the attacking midfielder/winger IbrahimAfellay from PSV Eindhoven, while RealMadrid got EmmanuelAdebayor on loan from Manchester City.
So many big signings! And many of them have already begun to make an impact at their new clubs. Right now Giampaolo Pazzini, Luis Suarez, and Edin Dzeko are looking like the best signings of the window. I can't wait to see how these new players work out.
